<p>I'm not a fan.</p>

<p>i like it. it's much more organized than the current one--it's not aesthetically pleasing, i admit, but it makes it really easy to get to what you want.</p>

<p>it's so...brown.</p>

<p>oh.</p>

<p>nevermind, point taken.</p>

<p>very utilitarian</p>

<p>The fixed size is too small and the Brown is too dark. Some things, like the academic departments shouldn't need to be scrolled.</p>

<p>Note, there is a form for feedback here:</p>

<p>Ugly -- the mix of fonts looks unprofessional and it all just looks like a clutter of words. Boo.</p>

<p>The concept is interesting, and it'd be killer if it were maybe fluid and better located on the page... or even just with variable universal access user-side stylesheet font controls (make large, smaller, etc). Interesting, at least... seems to make things more accessible, even if at the expense of the aesthetic.</p>

<p>i liked having the rando articles on the home page</p>

<p>I like it actually. Maybe it's just my monitor but the links are all in front of you instead of to the side so they're easier to find.</p>

<p>The dark brown background looks more like black. Is it my screen or am I colorblind?</p>

<p>I don't like how everything needs to be scrolled--maybe I'm old school, but I like fixed screens and simple hyperlinks to the various sections.</p>

<p>And that black background is way....scary. That's not quite the right word. Imposing...yeah, that fits. </p>

<p>Suggestions: make the background a lighter color. Make more things fixed on the screen--or at least use hyperlinks instead of the scroll-out text.</p>

<p>Way too dark. Cluttered...not super user friendly. Looks a bit unprofessional. Meh....</p>

<p>yeah, also too much moving stuff, if my mouse goes anywhere, stuff starts flying</p>

<p>^Haha, I totally agree with you. If you move your mouse a cm too much something pops up.</p>

<p>Would every other subpages get intergrated likewise? If the links outbound aren't in the same design framework it would be very jarring and a sort of obnoxious landing page since there'd be no system-wide navigational system or metric...</p>

<p>I agree. Things just jump around too much</p>

<p>I like the brown. If I'm right, it's the exact shade of one of our exact school colors--seal brown.</p>
